How do you check a revolver cylinder for excessive play?

Ive always cocked the hammer and then just checked the cylinder play. It seems all revolvers have a slight amount of play. Is there a measurement? Thanks in advance, Steve.

If there is misalignment. Copper and lead, will be scraped off the side of the bullet as its fired. This can be potentially cause injury to bystanders, and destruction of the revolver.
